Abstract: A range-measuring sensor is arranged on a vehicle. The direction of measurement or plane of measurement of the sensor can be altered by driving a sensor motor. A map of the environment is produced by using natural landmarks. A  predetermined route along which the vehicle is intended to move is stipulated. Landmarks which can serve as a localization aid along the predetermined route are determined. The environment is scanned at different times by using the sensor in order to detect the previously determined landmarks while the vehicle is moving along the predetermined route. The vehicle is localized by comparing the detected landmarks with the landmarks recorded on the map. The sensor motor is actively controlled, at least in areas of the environment with only a few previously determined landmarks, such that the sensor is oriented to these landmarks in order to ensure that they are detected.

Abstract: In an absorbent sheet manufacturing apparatus, a first roller (31) and a third roller (51) are rotated while each first concave portion (312) faces a convex portion (512), and therefore sheet concave portion rows (913) are formed on a first sheet member (91). The first sheet member (91) is transferred from a first roller-outer side surface (311) to a cylinder-outer side surface (211) of a supply cylinder (21), and a lower portion of the cylinder-outer side surface (211) is in contact with the first sheet member (91) while supply concave portions (212) supplied with particles face the sheet concave portion rows (913). Therefore, particles can be supplied accurately into each sheet concave portion (912) included in the sheet concave portion rows (913) and be held in the sheet concave portion (912) while the particles are practically prevented from scattering to the outside of the sheet concave portion (912).

Abstract: A portable distress light signal device generates a visual S.O.S. distress signal indication visible from a significant distance away. Indicia including the letters "SOS" are disposed on either side of the device. A first set of light emitting diodes (LEDs) are disposed on both sides of the unit, each positioned within the interior of the region defined by each letter of the "SOS" indicia. A second set of LEDs, preferably of substantial power and luminosity, is likewise disposed on both sides of the unit, within the interior of the "O" portion of the "SOS" indicia. A power cord and power plug couples the unit to a source of electrical power, such as the cigarette lighter socket or 12- Volt accessory socket of an automobile or other vehicle. Powerful permanent magnets are preferably disposed about at least the bottom and right side edges of the housing, permitting the driver of an automobile to rapidly secure the unit to a ferromagnetic surface of the vehicle, such as the driver-side door or roof, in both cases with the SOS indicia oriented in horizontal orientation for easy recognition by passersby. Hazard warning stripes are disposed about the front and back sides of the housing for further enhanced visibility. Upon the application of power to the unit, an internal microcontroller repeatedly switches power to both the first and second sets of LEDs on and off, causing them to pulse in a repeated sequence that corresponds to the S.O.S. signal in international Morse code.
